Certainly when it comes to how those classes achieve their primary purpose.

Every tank in XIV is just the same flat % mitigation cooldowns and then some slightly different flavour ability, which rarely ever change your mitigation plan.
Meanwhile the tanks in WoW achieve "mitigate damage to not die and smooth out damage spikes to make your healer's life easier" in very different ways.
